Vesuvianite-group minerals (VGM) are wide• spread and occur in different geological formations including regional metamorphic rocks, skams, rodingites, etc. Specific crystal-chemical features of these minerals reflect conditions of their crystallization. As a rule, high-temperature VGM have high-symmetry structures (space group P4/…
This volume is the third and final part of the series of reference books on vibrational spectra of minerals. Unlike the two previous parts (Chukanov
2014; Chukanov and Chervonnyi 2016), this book contains not only infrared
(IR) spectra of minerals but also data on their Raman spectra.
In Chap. 1, numerous examples of the application of 1R spectro…
